# Audits

LagomChain seamlessly connects the Ethereum and Cosmos ecosystems, enabling cross-chain interoperability while maintaining a strong focus on security. However, bridging two major blockchain networks comes with complex security challenges, which is why security remains a top priority for the LagomChain development team.

### Security Practices in LagomChain

Every feature in LagomChain undergoes:

* Extensive internal testing before release.
* Thorough internal audits conducted by the development team.
* External security audits by industry-leading firms to ensure the integrity of the protocol.

While internal audits help maintain a high-security standard, external audits provide independent validation—ensuring that both LagomChain’s core protocol and applications deployed on it remain secure and reliable.

### Publicly Available Security Audits

Below is a list of third-party security audits conducted on the LagomChain and Ethermint codebases:

* Informal Systems Security Audit
* Oak Security Audit for EVM Extensions
* [Kudelski Security Audit](https://github.com/crypto-org-chain/cronos/blob/main/docs/audit/report_ethermint_1.2_final_public.pdf)

These audits help identify and address potential vulnerabilities, reinforcing LagomChain’s commitment to trust, transparency, and security.
